Lunar New Year

Happy Lunar New Year from the ABC.

Lunar New Year is an important celebration for millions of people all around the world, including many Australians with an Asian heritage.

The Lunar New Year is celebrated by many communities, including Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Tibetan, Mongolian and Japanese (though the date of celebration can vary from country to country).

This year "Lunar New Year" on ABC Extra will focus on the real life stories of Australians. All over Australia our reporters have been talking to people with an Asian heritage, asking them what the lunar new year means to them, and about their lives more generally.

"Lunar New Year" on ABC Extra will bring you those stories from 6.00am AEDT on Tuesday 28/01/14 until midnight on Friday 31/01/14.
